Senator Jinggoy Estrada for Vice President?

According to a report by GMA News on August 12 (Tuesday), Senator Jinggoy Estrada is still entertaining thoughts of running for public office. Despite being in detention, the politician allegedly known as Sexy is "confident" that "his options are open" for 2016. Estrada is currently facing graft and plunder charges and is "imprisoned" at the PNP Custodial Center.

The Senator believes that he will be a free man in time for the campaign season. We interpret this as he thinks he will be out of the fix that he is in before the elections and the campaign period. It’s good to know that gentle incarceration has not dampened Senator Estrada’s spirits and he has kept an optimistic view of the future.

His father, President Mayor Joseph "Erap" Estrada, shares his positive outlook and confirmed that the younger Estrada’s name was already thrown in the hat in earlier agreements within UNA.
